Earlier today, accused would-be terrorist Najibullah Zazi pleaded not guilty to terrorism conspiracy charges in a Brooklyn court. Afterward, his defense attorney, J. Michael Dowling, said he'd "like to stop this rush to judgment" against his client, who admitted to receiving bomb-making training in Pakistan, possessed handwritten notes on his laptop on how to make bombs, and bought large quantities of an ingredient for said bombs.
